A Student's Prayer

Author: John W. Peterson Appears in 3 hymnals Topics: The Church Christian Education First Line: God, the all-wise, and Creator Lyrics: 1 God, the all-wise, and Creator Of the human intellect, Guide our search for truth and knowledge, All our thoughts and ways direct. Help us build the tow’rs of learning That would make us wise, astute, On the rock of Holy Scripture: Truth revealed and absolute. 2 O how vast the shores of learning— There are still uncharted seas, And they call to bold adventure Those who turn from sloth and ease. But we need Your hand to guide us In the studies we pursue, And the presence of Your Spirit To illumine all we do. 3 May the things we learn, so meager, Never lift our hearts in pride Till in foolish self-reliance We would wander from Your side. Let them only bind us closer, Lord, to You, in whom we find Very fountain-head of wisdom, Light and life of all mankind. Used With Tune: ELLESDIE

Oh, Blest the House

Author: Christoph Carl Ludwig von Pheil, 1712-84; Catherine Winkworth, 1827-78 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 34 hymnals Topics: Christian Home and Education; Christian Education First Line: Oh, blest the house, whate'er befall Lyrics: 1 Oh, blest the house, whate'er befall, Where Jesus Christ is all in all! A home that is not wholly His-- How sad and poor and dark it is! 2 Oh, blest that house where faith is found And all in hope and love abound; They trust their God and serve Him still And do in all His holy will! 3 Oh, blest the parents who give heed Unto their children's foremost need And weary not of care or cost. May none to them and heav'n be lost! 4 Oh, blest that house; it prospers well. In peace and joy the parents dwell, And in their children's lives is shown How richly God can bless His own. 5 Then here will I and mine today A solemn promise make and say: Though all the world forsake His Word, I and my house will serve the Lord!

How Blest, Those Whose Transgressions (Psalm 32)

Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 31 hymnals Topics: Teaching/Education First Line: How blest, those whose transgressions Lyrics: 1 How blest, those whose transgressions have freely been forgiven; whose guilt is wholly covered before the sight of heaven. Blest, those to whom our Lord God will not impute their sin: whose guilt has been forgiven; whose hearts, made true again. 2 While I kept guilty silence, my strength was spent with grief. Your hand was heavy on me; my life found no relief. But when I made confession and hid no sin from you, when I revealed my failings, you gave me life anew. 3 So let the godly seek you, when troubling times are near; no storm or flood shall reach them, nor cause their hearts to fear. In you, O Lord, I hide me; you save me from all ill. And songs of your salvation my heart with rapture fill. Scripture: Psalm 32 Used With Tune: MEIRIONYDD Text Sources: The New Metrical Version of the Psalms, 1909, alt.

Father, supreme, by whom we live

Author: Dr. E. H. Dewart, 1828-1903 Appears in 7 hymnals Topics: Education Lyrics: 1 Father, supreme, by whom we live, Thou who art God alone, Our songs of grateful praise receive, And make our hearts Thy throne. 2 Creation vast reveals Thy name, The earth, the heavens above, With one unceasing voice proclaim Thy wisdom, power, and love. 3 We bless Thee for Thy works, all bright With tokens of Thy skill; But more for reason's sacred light By which we read Thy will. 4 For not on brightest orbs, which roll Through space at Thy decree, Hast Thou bestowed the thinking soul, To know and worship Thee. 5 May every science, every truth, Our eager minds explore; Lead us, alike in age and youth, Thy wisdom to adore. 6 May those who teach, and those who learn, Walk in the narrow road; In every sphere of thought discern An ever-present God.

The Law of God Is Good and Wise

Author: Matthias Loy, 1828-1915, alt. Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 20 hymnals Topics: Christian Home and Education Lyrics: 1 The Law of God is good and wise And sets His will before our eyes, Shows us the way of righteousness, And dooms to death when we transgress. 2 Its light of holiness imparts The knowledge of our sinful hearts That we may see our lost estate And turn from sin before too late. 3 To those who help in Christ have found And would in works of love abound It shows what deeds are His delight And should be done as good and right. 4 But those who scornfully disdain God's Law shall then in sin remain; Its terror in their ear resounds And keeps their wickedness in bounds. 5 The Law is good; but since the fall Its holiness condemns us all; It dooms us for our sin to die And has no pow'r to justify. 6 To Jesus we for refuge flee, Who from the curse has set us free, And humbly worship at His throne, Saved by His grace through faith alone.
